Great advice!
Blessed be the LORD my strength which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight. PSALM 144:1
I CLING to my guns and my Bible.
Nobody says you have to have them hanging around your neck when the police arrive. Why would anyone need to know other than you that you were protecting your hearing? That's a personal decision and is an irrelevent matter to the investigation...I would liken it to putting on your shoes before checking something out at night...no need to mention that either.
Know Guns, Know Safety, Know Peace.
No Guns, No Safety, No Peace.
Guns are like sex and air...its no big deal until YOU can't get any.
I've been doing this for quite some time; my pair of Tac-6's sits next to the G34 in the bedside drawer.
It just makes sense...and I've never really expereinced any of the problem with ambient noise mentioned above.
There are no dangerous weapons; there are only dangerous men.--RAH
...man fights with his mind; the weapons are incidental.--Jeff Cooper
There is a reason they try and make small bullets act like big bullets--Glockmann10mm
Semper Fi,
It is an industry norm to train wearing electronic ears and has been for over a decade now including live fire and FoF with Sims.
I've done both and have no problem at all detecting correct direction.
Same gos for competition sport at indoor ranges where the air handler is running. No problems and I have literally stood for hours among that while with ears on and could easily hear conversation level talking as well as range commands and ability to tell what direction a sound is coming from spoken or shot (?).
As to air ducts and ceiling fan noise they have to be running pretty high creating a tremendous amount of air flow volume to cause any issue and white noise. In an average persons home no such item of air high volume movement is within norms.
As well one can simply turn down the volume. If the air handler or ceiling fan noise is of such high air movement/mechanical noise volume to disrupt e-ears then the wearer would have been deafened anyway without ear pro.
Industrial and commercial sectors have been using same under same and much higher noise conditions for some time now too.

I've been running a gun for quite awhile as well and I don't find the use of electronics to be the norm in law enforcement.
I will just say that I had a problem using electronics (Peltor SwatTacs) in training and I would not trust them for a live search.
Training means learning the rules. Experience means learning the exceptions.
Gotta chime in on this one.... forget the ear muffs - this is why.
If you ahve ever hunted you know what I mean. If you have ever been in a real gun fight you know what I mean.
When the fight or flight response kicks in your ears protect themselves. When you fire a hunting rifle at a target in a fast encounter (IE combat situation, meeting engagement) you dont feel the recoil, and you sure dont hear the loud report. But you hear everything around you clearly. Your ears know how to protect themselves in life and death situations.
Combat was the same way. All I ever heard of my M16A4 even in houses was the cycling of the buffer spring and the mechanical movements of the trigger group.... and that was because my jaw bone was in contact with the rifle and transmitting the sounds around my outer ear, and straight to my inner ear.
The only time that I can think of where my ears werent protected was when my .50 cal gunner let go a 100 round "burst" when my head was 12 inches below the end of the barrel.
the best thing you can do for yourselves in a real HD situation is to make sure you can hear as clearly as possible.
(and no, electronic earmuffs are not part of any military or law enforcement training program that I have ever taken part in.)
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
Auditory exclusion is a temporary psychological effect...A concept of conscious brain interface to the ear in processing of sound energy.
Hearing loss is permanent loss of the ear structures ability to process sound energy.
Auditory exclusion is brought on by stress and is a human psychological reaction.
Hearing loss is brought on by damage from either sound energy, sound pressure as a wave as well as suddenly increased or decreased air pressure.
The human brain can and does turn auditory exclusion on and off.
Also the human brain by way of exposure can be trained to not activate auditory exclusion.
While hearing loss cannot be turned on and off, and it is not something that can be hardened by exposure or training. The nerve endings and follicles within the inner ear are structures that do not regenerate.
When fight or flight kicks in your ears do not protect themselves.
The structures are exposed to the same sound energies, sound pressures and atmospheric conditions whether your brain allows you to recognize them as such or not. The ears offer no protection. The brain though does selectively filter sound energy to the conscious singularly. Sound pressure and atmospheric conditions though remain unchanged in the physical and actual whether one consciously realizes it or not.
There is much writing on this as well as real world evidence of same and has been for decades.

Sound Advice by Amin Musani, Au.D. [Doctor of Audiology]
Noise-Induced Hearing Loss
Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut
Noise-Induced Hearing Loss - May 1, 2000 - American Academy of Family Physicians
Don't Let Gun Sports Backfire on You:
Use Ear Protection and Hang Onto Your Hearing
Don't Let Gun Sports Backfire on You: Use Ear Protection and Hang Onto Your Hearing [NIDCD Inside]
For an idea of what ranges of sound energy fall within see the following......"Loud noise, such as the 140-decibel blast of a rifle, can irreparably damage the specialized cells of the inner ear—called hair cells—that enable us to hear," says James F. Battey, Jr., M.D., Ph.D., director of NIDCD. "So it is vitally important for us to protect our ears when we are repeatedly exposed to loud noise."
The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), recommends that hunters and shooters wear earplugs and earmuffs together when firing guns, to increase the amount of hearing protection provided.
Yet, according to a 2000 study supported by the NIH, too many male hunters and target shooters are not wearing ear protection at all. In fact, of the approximately 1,500 Wisconsin men who participated in the study, 95 percent of those who hunt and 38 percent of those who target shoot had never worn ear protection during the year preceding the study. (Women were not included in the study since few women from the study community had recently participated in either activity.)
Most notably, the study demonstrates a direct link between hunting or target shooting and high-frequency hearing loss in men. High-frequency hearing loss is the reduction of the ear's ability to hear high-frequency sounds, the sounds that are necessary for understanding speech.
Henderson, an avid outdoor sportsman who has published four books on hunting, along with thousands of newspaper and magazine articles on hunting and shooting, discovered his hearing loss at age 19 during a physical he took for the military...
Auditory exclusion as a function that is commonly assumed and promoted as being some how physically protective to the structure of the ear does not in science play out to be a fact when reviewed by medical testing. It never has, and has never been a truth to that end. Even as many people believe it so or heard it to be so per being told same from some other person who had heard or believed it to be so.
All those law enforcement, military personnel and hunters from generations and decades past even up to current who did not wear hearing protection upon being exposed to firearm discharges, even just one shot, have and did suffer real damage. Damage that even if their conscious mind did not register it as being loud, painful or even 'heard' was still in the physical world a reality.
As to wearing of electronic protection in military and law enforcement in my regular world work my company is ion marketing & sales, to government as specializing in specific markets. Markets including specifically law enforcement, military and para-military agencies. My companies clients include manufacturers and dealers of this gear as well as other ear protection devices including the Aearo 'C.A.E.' I'd mentioned before as are now standard issue among the military widely; http://www.aearoweb.com/sites/milita...267CAE_FAQ.pdf
These vendors are selling electronic ear protection left and right with some from Peltor in specific being priced at $200+ govt/GSA rate.
Although you may not have had experience in their use, yet, I absolutely positively assure you that they are and have been in play...As that is one of the means that I make my bones.
As to law enforcement agencies everybody knows they are and have been under tight budget constraints state and local. Most of them in specific continue to use old school ear muffs in training courses et. al. It is the rare few now days in modern times that use nothing....And those such agencies are living in the relative stone ages.
Below are images and video examples of serious law enforcement, military and para-military training where specifically electronic ear-pro have been in use and is a norm among industry. Be sure to pay attention to folks heads...

These units as by various mfrs. are designed to be PASGT compliant and as worn fit within and under the current issue helmet with comfort. manufacturers specifically offer models just to this end for again these specific non-civilian markets, and have been for over a decade.
Anyway I'm getting off topic.
The bottom line is that you or anyone will find it extremely difficult to find documented medical support to the view that auditory exclusion is protective in any physical way to ones ears in the way reducing sound energy, sound pressure and/or atmospheric pressure. As well it will be equally difficult to find documentation to support that it somehow retards or even prevents hearing loss be it in the immediate or long term.
Auditory exclusion is just a literal trick of the mind (our brain) as related to how it processes sensory input (primary) and thereafter provides it to our conscious being (secondary) as through filtering.
A whole lot of deafened police, military, hunters and sporting & recreational civilian shooters can and do attest to this, either directly or by way of those who know and live with them among their degree of deafness.
- Janq
P.S. - I have never taken to the field to hunt nor stepped foot on a range to shoot for training or sporting without wearing ears _and_ eyes. For me it's mandatory if I'm planning to hold or be around guns that might go BANG.
I enjoy hearing things like birds, wind among trees, insects buzzing and my kids whispering stuff to each other from around a corner too much not to.
Almost every hunter instructor I know has at one time or another stated that he/she can't hear and has suffered real to them perceptible loss. By the time you can actually perceive it, that's when it's really bad. :(

Your Google-fu is impressive.
Don't be confused here. I think we are all proponents of hearing protection in live fire training. This is where electronics excel. I wear them anytime I'm doing live fire.
Back on point here. I agree with you that they (electronics) are a standard in training and to not use them on the range is a mistake; but they are not the norm on the street or for specialized tactical applications in law enforcement since they do not benefit the operator to enhance his search skillset. If they did work, I would be the first to wear them when going through the door.
My point is to advise the average CCW who may not have a bevy of practical search experience that the use of electronics could be disadvantageous.
I try to wear my Sure-Fire Ear Pros but sometimes it just doesn't work out that way.
Training means learning the rules. Experience means learning the exceptions.
JANQ, I will concede the point to you - well put. As far as a real life HD or SD shooting, I still can't trust electronic "ears" to reliably tell me where sound is coming from - I am willing to take a bit of a pounding on the ol ear drums to make absolutely sure that my family is protected.
Training is another matter all together. I wear hearing protection nearly every time I shoot. But based on my personal experiences I will not wear it in a real shooting (unless I am already at the range with it on :-) )
I also question the study(s) in question. My hearing after a decade in the infantry with hundreds of live fire machine gun, mortar and demolitions ranges (actually probably over a 1000) as well as nearly 100 (rough guess) firefights - tested to be as good as the day I entered the service - (no knee injuries, hip injuries, back inuries either.... some how I escaped with absolutely 0% disability :-) )
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
Honestly Semper (and USMC) it took me roughly :15 to locate all of the links provided.
The information as content I already knew and share direct with students as an instructor. I'd learned this stuff ages ago.
Of course to the item of wearing ears at all under HD conditions not everyone everytime can do so. and to expect as much would be silly.
But to the main and very important health related point of protecting ones ears if and when ever they can from gun fire, that is an item that is quite often overlooked and/or assumed to be minor when fact is it is not. : |
Instructors as of current, including myself, push eye and ear pro as being something folk should deem mandatory when using firearms, and to seek out the best that they can afford as a one time personal investment.
You only have one set of ears and eyes, with hearing aids costing upwards of two grand as against some $200 or much less electro ears.
- Janq
P.S. - I mention this and di the above work prior not to be malicious but to educate.
Not just you two guys but any and all others reading this thread so they too aren't inadvertently or wrongly exposing themself to irreversible preventable hearing damage and associated health risk.
"Killers who are not deterred by laws against murder are not going to be deterred by laws against guns. " - Robert A. Levy
"A license to carry a concealed weapon does not make you a free-lance policeman." - Florida Div. of Licensing
Like I said your Google-Fu is good!
If I'm reading you correctly - were on the same page.
Training means learning the rules. Experience means learning the exceptions.
Janq, I think the issue where we differ is simply this "under HD conditions not everyone everytime can do so."
I would replace that phrase with "under HD condition a person should not" It would have to be a very specific circumstance (that I have not been able to concieve of yet) where I would recomend wearing hearing protection in a real shooting. Like I said, in training they are a must have, in fact if you can afford electronic protection, even better.
The intent of the original post was to use hearing protection in a SD or HD scenario.
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
It is arguments like this that make me want a suppressor!
I'd much rather grab my weapon and be good to go to protect myself, my home and my hearing rather than grabbing a weapon and some ear-muffs.
"To my mind it is wholly irresponsible to go into the world incapable of preventing violence, injury, crime, and death. How feeble is the mindset to accept defenselessness. How unnatural. How cheap. How cowardly. How pathetic." Ted Nugent
I like it.... suppressor. :-)
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
Agreed Exodus a suppressor would be nice but they are still loud just reduced but not eliminated in db.
USMC if the opportunity avails itself I would encourage e-ears for the defensive shooter. Again per my prior posts before your I IRL do and have been for ages supporting just same to that end.

They say that tragic emergencies bring out the best in people and the worst. My focus is on the best. While I am aware that there are many examples of people pitching in selflessly to help, I wish to commend two of our businesses in the Farmingdale area.
The Farmingdale meat market, Wholesale Meats, emailed customers that we could box our meats, tape and mark them and they would store them until we got our power back. The offer was made to anyone without power, be they customer or not.
Giunta's, on [Route] 109, never lost power, and stayed open 24 hours a day with a skeleton crew to keep things ready for the next day. Ice was available at regular prices, how amazing when other merchants scalped their ice. The manager, Bruce, could not have been more kind, attentive and generous in helping shoppers.
Kudos to these two establishments. They are not to be forgotten, as are the many others who stepped up to the plate and helped out. There is reason for optimism with people like these in our community.

At a recent meeting of the Farmingdale Board of Education, school district superintendent John Lorentz discussed New York State's proposal to invest $2 billion into districts statewide
through the Smart Schools Bond Act.
If approved by voters in the upcoming general elections, the act would allow the state to borrow $2 billion in the form of a capital bond to provide students with access to classroom
technology and high-speed internet connectivity, with the goal of equalizing opportunities for children to learn, adding classroom space, expanding pre-kindergarten programs, replacing classroom trailers with permanent instructional space and installing high-tech security features in schools.

The 2014 Reilly Cup finals featured the two most successful OTHG teams over the last 9 years. Sal's Place and Singleton's have had 11 finals appearances and 7 championships between them during this period of time. They split 2 games during the regular season and Singleton's became the winner's bracket representative in the 2014 Cup by beating Sal's deep in the tournament.
Sal's took the first game 14-7. The game was close until the 8th inning when Sal's broke it open with some timely hits and taking advantage of a Singleton's miscue or two. Sal's held
Singleton's to 7 runs with outstanding all-around defense, which was particularly impressive given that some of their significant contributors were visibly fighting through late-season injuries.

Man United Signs Angel Di Maria For $99 Million
Manchester United broke the British transfer-fee record by signing Angel Di Maria from Real Madrid for 59.7 million pounds on Tuesday, extending a summer spending spree that was sparked by its most disappointing season in a generation. Di Maria was one of Madrid's key players last season when the Spanish team became European champion for a 10th time, but rejected the offer of a new contract during the offseason and asked to leave. Di Maria said "I have thoroughly enjoyed my time in Spain and there were a lot of clubs interested in me, but United is the only club that I would have left Real Madrid for."

David Banner - What Did I Do?
Artist: David Banner
Featuring: 9th Wonder
Producer: 9th Wonder
Album: Unreleased
Avg Rating: 3.9 ( 18 votes )
There was a quote that stuck with me from Sean "Diddy" Combs' Making the Band: "Emotions will have you broke." I guess that philosophy comes into play when choosing tracks for an album too… although I wouldn't have nixed this one. Mean-mugger David Banner and super-producer 9th Wonder have let a novel loose on their new offering What Did I Do?, a record that shows the rugged yet empathetic plight of a man whose main tenderoni is looking for love elsewhere. Not since Ghostface's Never Be the Same Again has a rapper truly captured the emotion of being unequivocally hurt by a woman, and this time around without Carl Thomas. With 9th always consistent behind the boards and Banner putting his trademark southern drawl on this great storyline, it would indeed have been Pulitzer-worthy. Unfortunately, we won't see What Did I Do? at the awards ceremony with the rest of the tracks for the duo's Death of a Popstar album, dropping November 9. So download this joint now, or live with the fact that eventually this song will be gone forever.

Pittsburgh, PA (SportsNetwork.com) - Veteran goaltender Tomas Vokoun is heading to the American Hockey League on a conditioning assignment, the Pittsburgh Penguins announced Wednesday.
Vokoun, who will report to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, has yet to play in an NHL game this season while recovering from a surgical procedure to dissolve a blood clot in his pelvis back in September.
The 37-year-old Czech supplanted a shaky Marc-Andre Fleury in the playoffs last spring and backstopped Pittsburgh to the Eastern Conference finals.
Vokoun has 300 wins in 700 career games.

Russia's central bank has promised to support financial institutions hit by fresh US sanctions. The European Union has also announced measures to limit access to capital for Russian banks.
In an online statement posted Wednesday, Russia's central bank promised to take "adequate measures" to support targeted institutions.
The reaction comes one day after the US announced new sanctions that targeted the Bank of Moscow, the Russian Agricultural Bank and the country's second-largest bank, VTB.
Washington said the new sanctions constrain roughly 30 percent of Russia's banking sector assets.
VTB, in a statement, called the sanctions "politically motivated, unfair, legally dubious and economic damaging for all parties."
"We are confident in our ability to raise new funding when necessary," VTB said.
The move to increase sanctions comes after a Malaysia Airlines passenger plane was shot down over eastern Ukraine killing all 298 people on board. Western officials accuse pro-Russian separatists of bringing down the plane with a surface-to-air missile supplied by Moscow.
"Russia's actions in Ukraine and the sanctions that we've already imposed have made a weak Russian economy even weaker," President Barack Obama said Tuesday.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has slashed Russia's growth forecast for this year to nearly zero, down from 1.3 percent last year.
EU sanctions
The European Union also announced measures limiting access to capital for Russian banks.
EU President Herman Van Rompuy and the president of the European Commission, Jose Manuel Barroso, said the sanctions sent a "strong warning" that Russia's destabilization of Ukraine could not be tolerated.
Europe, however, has a far stronger economic relationship with Moscow than the US does, and until this week EU leaders had been reluctant to impose harsh penalties for fear of harming their own economies.
"When the violence created spirals out of control and leads to the killing of almost 300 innocent civilians in their flight from the Netherlands to Malaysia, the situation requires urgent and determined response," the two top EU officials said in a statement.
Meanwhile, the Moscow-based Association of European Businesses (AEB) said on Wednesday it "deeply regrets" new sanctions imposed by the EU on Russia.
"Considering the volume of trade between Russia and the EU, and Russia and Ukraine, the AEB expects that these new sanctions will not only hurt the Russian economy, but also will restrict growth in both the EU and Ukraine," it said in a statement.

For months, the EU looked on as Moscow destabilized Eastern Ukraine. But after the downing of MH17, Brussels had no choice but to impose economic sanctions against Russia, says DW's Bernd Riegert. (29.07.2014)
Dortmund lost a narrow game against Hannover on Saturday as they kept their poor form in the Bundesliga going. Meanwhile, Stuttgart's return to form seemed clear until the game turned crazy in Frankfurt.
German Bundesliga club Werder Bremen have released their head coach Robin Dutt, as well as other coaching staff. The former top club in the Bundesliga is currently placed last in the league.

Rooftoppers Secretly Climb 650-Meter-High Crane in Shanghai by Vitaly Raskalov and Vadim Makhorov | via
Russian photographers and adrenaline junkies Vitaly Raskalov and Vadim Makhorov, who are no strangers to traveling to the world's towering skyscrapers and climbing them with absolutely no safety gear, have recently conquered the second tallest building in the world. The daredevil duo managed to gain access to China's Shanghai Tower earlier this month, ascend the 650-meter-high structure, and take some incredible photos from their unique viewpoints.
As if rooftopping/skywalking and photographing from such great heights wasn't enough, the two ventured off with the added pressure of sneaking into the construction site to scale the unfinished building while the city was busy celebrating the Chinese New Year. Raskalov says, "Aware of the strict Chinese law, we prepared carefully and picked an appropriate date, the Chinese New Year day. At that time the security was less watchful, workers were on vacations, and cranes did not work. We got to the crane at around midnight. It took us almost two hours to get on the 120th floor by foot. And also, we spend almost 18 hours on top of the building, sleeping and waiting for better weather."

Hand Sewn portraits by David Catá | via
Does love really has to hurt? According to artist David Catá it obviously does. The Spanish artist uses his body as a canvas, writing an autobiographical diary. In his ongoing series 'A Flor De Piel', he embroiders portraits of people who have influenced or marked his life – family, friends, teachers, lovers, partners – sewn into the palm of his hand.
'Their lives have been interwoven with mine to build my history', Catá explains. 'Every moment lived stays in the memory to finally be forgotten. Somehow, this fact is painful, since there are only material things and traces that people leave behind'. The woven flesh work establishes a symbiosis between union, separation, pain and love, a performatic and symbolic action of loss and preserves the memories through memorial, corporal and videographic footprints.

Valentine's Day 2014: The Revenge of the Chinese Singles – Mass Purchase of Movie Tickets so Couples Couldn't Sit Together (VIDEOS)

By Vittorio Hernandez | February 17, 2014 10:31 AM EST
Movie attendees enter a theater on the opening night of "The Hunger Games" at Regal Cinemas in Los Angeles, California March 22, 2012.

Couple viewers of the Feb 14 special evening showing of Beijing Love Story at the Xintiandi cinema complex got the surprise of their life when they discovered they couldn't sit beside their dates or boyfriend/girlfriend that night. The reason was that a group of singles in Shanghai bought all the odd-numbered seats for the movie.
The only aim was to peeve the Valentine's Day pairs who will watch the film. The group even posted a message which taunts sweethearts and couples which reads: "Wants to see a movie on Valentine's Day? Sorry, you'll have to sit separately. Absence makes the heart grow fonder," quoted Time.
The Telegraph said the mischievous act was initiated by one anonymous man who broke with his girlfriend in 2013. His initial attempt to buy all odd-numbered tickets was blocked by online ticket limits and cinema staff who became suspicious with the odd request.
He then recruited online other singles, established a crowd-funding site that pooled resources and successfully booked the tickets. Once their booking was confirmed and they paid for the tickets, then the taunting online message was posted.
He later tried to soften the blow by adding another post, saying, "I hope all lovers understand this is just a small joke," quoted by The Shanghai Morning Post.
He got a lot of allies on his side since that are millions of Chinese who are single and loveless, worsened by the gender imbalance in the country which prefers sons to daughter and the one-child policy, resulting in 34 million men likely loveless and destined to be without a partner in life until death.
YouTube/Pulitzer Center
On the opposite side of the coin, some Chinese women, because of their preference for career over family life, dread going to the home provinces for holidays such as the recent Lunar New Year, because their parents often nag them to find a suitable husband.
To get around the nagging and incessant questioning by curious relatives when would they attend another wedding in the family, some women resort to hiring men to pretend to be boyfriend for one day.
Due to the sheer number of single Chinese, the country now celebrates Nov 11 as Singles Day. The date was picked because the numerical designation of that date is 11/11 which looks like bare branches, the Chinese term for single men, marked by get together for a meal and morphing into an online shopping frenzy.
The day has similarities to Feb 14 which dateless and loveless men and women mostly from western nations spend the day, which they termed Galentine's or Palentine's Day, together.
The heavy emphasis on Valentine's Day is a reflection of society's inclination toward a couple's world that partnerless people are often made to feel the odd man or woman out, although their number are increasing over the years.
Besides the gender imbalance in China and the focus on many people in career over raising a family, maybe some of them have discovered being single is actually better than married or in a relationship.
YouTube/Mel C
Or maybe they have discovered there are more benefits to being unmarried or unattached. Bella DePaulo, psychologist at the University of California, Santa Barbara and author of Singled Out, lists five major reasons why being single is better. The reasons have the nod of scientists. The reasons are:
- Healthy heart - An 8-year study of 9,000 middle-aged adults found rates of heart ailments were lowest among the unmarried people. However, it excludes people who are remarried, divorced or widowed since they are often worse off than married people.
- Fit body - Another study with 13,000 male and female respondents between ages 18 and 64 discovered singles have more time each week to exercise. A separate report from Australia with thousands of women subjects found that those who got married became physically inactive over time.
- Strong social network - Ms DePaulo cited multiple studies that married people tend to less likely help, support, visit and maintain contact with friends, family and neighbours due to their tendency to focus on their respective spouses or partners.
- No settling - A study found that because of the fear of being single for life made some people settle for less in terms of giving higher priority to relationship status over personal happiness, while those who can embrace being single are less likely to settle for unhappy partnerships.
- Solitude - Singles who live alone often have time for solitude and its various psychological benefits. Preliminary findings of another research indicated people are more likely to feel good than bad about their time alone and form better memories when by themselves.

I have been reading a few posts lately written by Aussies and it made me think of the brief time I lived in Melbourne. My wife is Australian and I stayed with her in North Carlton before she came back here to the states. Anyway, what I really miss is Victoria Bitter or Vitamin B as my Aussie mates would call it. I'm a new homebrewer and as soon as I get some more expertese I'm going to try to brew a clone of it!!
Anyway, to you Aussies out there, I miss your country, its a beautiful one!!
And by the way, I'm a Carlton Footie supporter. Lets go Blues! Although I would prefer not to talk about the last season for obvious reasons!
After reading this, I vaguely recalled seeing a recipe on the web. I found it: how about this one?

Time travellers from the future 'could be here in weeks'
2008 02 08
By Roger Highfield |
The first time travellers from the future could materialise on Earth within a few weeks.
Physicists around the world are excitedly awaiting the start up of the £4.65 billion Large Hadron Collider, LHC - the most powerful atom-smasher ever built - which is supposed to shed new light on the particles and forces at work in the cosmos and reproduce conditions that date to near the Big Bang of creation.
Prof Irina Aref'eva and Dr Igor Volovich, mathematical physicists at the Steklov Mathematical Institute in Moscow believe that the vast experiment at CERN, the European particle physics centre near Geneva in Switzerland, may turn out to be the world's first time machine, reports New Scientist.
The debut in early summer could provide a landmark because travelling into the past is only possible - if it is possible at all - as far back as the point of creation of the first time machine.
That means 2008 could become "Year Zero" for temporal travel, they argue.
Time travel was born when Albert Einstein's colleague, Kurt Gödel, used Einstein's theory of relativity to show that travel into the past was possible.
Ever since he unveiled this idea in 1949, eminent physicists have argued against time travel because it undermines ideas of cause and effect to create paradoxes: a time traveller could go back to kill his grandfather so that he is never born in the first place.
But, sixty years later, there is still no fundamental reason why time travellers cannot put historians out of business.
But the Russians argue that when the energies of the LHC are concentrated into a subatomic particle - a trillionth the size of a mosquito - they can do strange things to the fabric of the universe, which is a blend of space and time that scientists called spacetime.
While Earth's gravity produces gentle distortions in spacetime the LHC energy can distort time so much that it loops back on itself. These loops are known to physicists as "closed timelike curves" and they ought, at least in theory, to allow us to revisit some past moment.
The scheme chimes with one laid out in 1988, when Prof Kip Thorne and colleagues at the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, showed that wormholes, or tunnels through spacetime, would allow time travel, a scheme popularised by Carl Sagan in his novel - made into a film - Contact.
Prof Aref'eva and Dr Volovich believe the LHC could create wormholes and so allow a form of time travel. "We realised that closed timelike curves and wormholes could also be a result of collisions of particles," Prof Aref'eva says.
There are still plenty of obstacles for the likes of Dr Who, however. Not least of them is the fact that these are mini wormholes, so only subatomic particles are small enough to travel through them.
They tell The Daily Telegraph that whether subatomic time travel in the LHC would open the doors for human scale time travellers "is a deep and interesting question" but stress that "these problems, and many others as well, require further investigations."
Probably the best we can hope for is that the LHC may show a signature of the wormholes' existence, Dr Volovich says. If some of the energy from collisions in the LHC goes missing, it could be because the collisions created particles that have travelled into a wormhole and through time.
One sticking point until now for wormhole concepts is finding an exotic kind of material capable of keeping the maw of the wormhole open for time travel.
Dark energy - a mysterious antigravity force that is thought to pervade the universe - could, they say, be just what is needed to keep the entrance to a wormhole open, at least according to one family of ideas about its nature, where it is called phantom energy.
If a blend of colliding particles and phantom energy does create a wormhole in Geneva this year, an advanced civilisation could find it in their history books, pinpoint the moment, and take advantage of their technology to pay us a visit.
"The observational evidence still allows for phantom energy," says Robert Caldwell, a physicist at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire. "As for Aref'eva and Volovich's speculation that the LHC will produce the stuff of time machines - ugh!"
A leading scientist who believes that time travel may be possible, Prof David Deutsch of Oxford University, comments: "It's speculative in the extreme, but not cranky. For various reasons I don't think the mechanism they propose would work (i.e. provide a pathway for messages from the future) even if their speculations are true."
Dr Brian Cox of the University of Manchester adds: "The energies of billions of cosmic rays that have been hitting the Earth's atmosphere for five billion years far exceed those we will create at the LHC, so by this logic time travellers should be here already. If these wormholes appear I will personally eat the hat I was given for my first birthday before I received it."

While Teresa Giudice faces time behind bars for alleged bankruptcy fraud ... another 'Real Housewife' is making sure she doesn't suffer a similar fate ... by coughing up $35,000.
"Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Danielle Staub filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy back in June 2012, claiming she was knee deep in debt ... approx. $500,000 to $1,000,000.
As part of the bankruptcy process Danielle had to disclose all her assets ... that way when creditors came to clean her out they'd know how much loot is available.
FYI -- this is the part where some people get in trouble because they try to hide cash and valuables ... hoping Uncle Sam and creditors won't notice.
According to legal docs, filed last month, Danielle was accused of doing just that. Rather than keep up the charade, DS agreed to fork over $35k to her creditors to help settle her debts ... and avoid any nasty consequences.
If she didn't settle ... Danielle might be in a similar boat to co-stars Teresa and Joe Giudice -- who are being federally indicted on 39 counts of fraud (including hiding assets during bankruptcy). They face 30 years in prison.
Good choice, Danielle.

A Monument to All Our Sins: An American in Hiroshima~August Installment of World Wise Now Avaliable
The 6th installment of U.S. CULCON's World Wise: Study Abroad Blog is now available!
"All over the world, there are advocates for the abolishment of nuclear weapons, but they all look to Hiroshima to lead the charge. For these citizens are the ones who must live with actual memories of an atomic bombing. They are the ones who have the first-hand accounts and can truly describe what it feels like to lose a loved one to nuclear weapons. Reflecting on this notion in my room, I was truly thankful that the people of the city could share their experiences with me.Though it wasn't always easy to swallow all the emotional turmoil that went with this visit, I left Hiroshima better person. To this day it will remain one of the highlights of not only this trip, but of my entire life. To Hiroshima, I left a prayer, but to me, it left something even more profound. To me, it left the strength and resolve necessary to pursue a peace: a peace it was robbed of: a peace that needs pursuit: a peace that is the right of every man, woman, and child in existence today."

The reality is that if you aren't seeing them fade, you aren't going that fast.
After I got faster, I tried the HP+ again and I could get them to fade at will. (this is running not fast times, like 2:08s at Thunderhill with street tires and about 330whp/3150 lbs)
In a heavier car, you are really just asking for an off track excursion. I'd rather run on stock pads than HP+, since even if you drastically overheat stock pads, they stay relatively healthy once they've cooled.
If that doesn't convince you... Check out the pic I have of what happens when you overheat an HP+. (the pad material disintegrates and you get dirty.)
The Cool Carbons are the closest I've seen to a true compromise pad and it's going to mean driving slower than real race pads. Nothing you can do about it, there just aren't pads that work at the 1200+ degree range, while being rotor friendly, dust free and squeal free for street use.
I really like the PFC 01, the Pagid RS14 (although they wear very quickly if you overheat them) and the Hawk HT14/HT10 combo, although they tend to be harder on rotors.
I have had the same issues with PFC's where I have put the piston through the backing plate.It usually happens when the pad gets worn and I do not run any track pad under 60% left to avoid this.

Charlize Theron in Current/Elliott Zip Leggings in Bluebird
Charlize Theron and her son were snapped while heading to breakfast together in California. She has been busy filming in South Africa, so that explains why we've seen so few paparazzi photos of her lately.
Charlize wore her Current/Elliott Zip Leggings in Bluebird with a red black and white sweater and boots. We first saw Charlize in these jeans back in 2011 and I think they're one of my favorite pairs from the brand. I love the wash and I think the zippers add a nice touch. I think they're breaking in really nicely on her too. You can buy Current/Elliott jeans Shopbop.com.
Charlize Theron in Rag & Bone Skinny Jeans in Heritage
Charlize Theron was spotted arriving back into Los Angeles, California after spending some time overseas for humanitarian work. The actress wore a pair of the Rag & Bone Skinny in Heritage with some layered shirts and leopard flats.
The cuff is a huge trend right now. Well, I'm not sure if I can call it that at the moment as it has been a style staple for quite some time now. But as of right now, we have caught numerous celebs flipping their hems up this season. It is a great way to transition darker washes from the fall for summer. Are any of you also giving your jeans the flip? You can click here to purchase these jeans from the Rag & Bone website for $180.
Charlize Theron in a Denim Skirt
Charlize Theron and her mum, Gerda, took her son, Jackson, to the airport to take a private plane out of Los Angeles, California.
Charlize wore a denim mini skirt for the flight with a simple t-shirt and sandals. It's been a long time since denim mini skirts were on the scene! I wonder if we will be seeing more celebs in them in the coming weeks, or if this is just a rare sighting?

Charlize Theron in Level 99 Janice Skinny Jeans in Adams
Charlize Theron was spotted running errands in LA before catching a showing of The Great Gatsby with her mom. I think Charlize looks great here, I know that she cut her hair for a movie role, but I actually think that it's a good look for her!
I also really like the combination of the bright yellow color of her Madewell top with her Level 99 Janice Skinny jeans in Adams. This is the second time we've spotted her in Level 99, the first time she wore a Helium Blue Pair, I think the Janice fit is really flattering on her. You can buy these jeans from Level 99 for $110.00.

Another View: What Roe v. Wade has wrought
Roe overturned the abortion laws of all 50 states and, combined with its partner case Doe v. Bolton, made abortion legal at any time from conception until the very moment of birth anywhere for any reason with virtually no restrictions or regulation of abortion procedures.
Roe undermined our medical system. Doctors, who previously had taken an oath to never harm a pre-born or prescribe an abortion-inducing potion, became murderers of babies. They invented the "partial birth abortion" procedure, fatally stabbing healthy babies only inches from normal birth in the back of the head, under the guise of "women's health." Some doctors, like Kermit Gosnell, became so corrupt they allegedly delivered babies and then snipped off their heads or left them to die unattended. Across the country, abortion mills maimed and sexually abused women.
Roe undermined our legal system historically based on the self-evident truth that all men are created equal and endowed with the unalienable right to life. Since Roe, neither is the right to life unalienable, nor are all men equal under the law. For the first time since slavery, an entire class of human beings (babies) has no legal protection.
When people protested, our rights to free speech were curtailed as never before. Now we have "bubble zones" where citizens are denied the right to advocate for the innocent babies and citizens are denied the right to even silently pray.
Even our religious freedoms are under attack to advance the abortion culture. At the federal level, we had to have laws (Hyde/Weldon amendments, Mexico City policy) to protect us against forced participation in the abortion genocide. Today, even that protection seems to have vanished as the current administration forces companies to violate their religious beliefs and provide abortion coverage and abortifacients to their employees.
Since abortion put all of the responsibility for children on the mother (fathers have no parental right to their pre-born children, even to save their lives), men were given carte blanche to exploit women. Where we used to hold fathers accountable for the children resulting from their sex acts, now a man just tells the woman to "get rid of it." When she objects, he can use physical or psychological force to coerce her into abortion, or just go his merry way. Women have been reduced to sex objects for men, thanks to Roe. Why do you think homicide is the leading cause of death of pregnant women?
The abortion regime has also hurt millions of women. Many are left sterile or incapable of carrying future babies to term. Untold millions more suffer or die from other medical complications of the "safe" abortion procedure. Then there's Post Abortion Syndrome (PAS), similar to PTSD, from which millions of women suffer as a direct result of their abortions.
Roe v. Wade continues to be one of the worst tragedies ever to face America.

PROVIDENCE ŌĆö Every coach has his or her own way to get the team ready. For Ed Cooley, that means leaving no stone unturned.
Following ProvidenceŌĆÖs 80-49 runaway performance against an overmatched Brown team on Monday night, Cooley took the media inside the preparation his team goes through leading up to tip-off time. Focusing on the opponentŌĆÖs tendencies is one area thatŌĆÖs obviously stressed ŌĆō PC was going up against a Brown squad that prefers to play at a much slower tempo ŌĆō yet thereŌĆÖs a little thing called self-scouting that Cooley believes is just as vital to the cause.
ŌĆ£We need to prepare for ourselves as much as weŌĆÖre preparing for someoneŌĆÖs opponent,ŌĆØ Cooley said following the FriarsŌĆÖ third straight win to improve to 7-2. ŌĆ£The way we scout and watch film, IŌĆÖm very grateful that our school spent a lot of money on an editing system. That allows us as a staff to go through every pass and shot a player makes. Everything can be micromanaged in practice so they can see themselves.ŌĆØ
Cooley then went on to praise not only how far the Friar players have come in comprehending the scouting report, but also going out and executing it. For Vincent Council, that meant removing BrownŌĆÖs leading scorer, Sean McGonagill, from the equation. Council clearly won this duel, finishing one rebound shy of a triple-double with 21 points, 11 assists and nine rebounds.
Defensively Council held McGonagill to seven points on 2-of-12 shooting with six turnovers.
ŌĆ£You would have to ask him, but I think might have taken the challenge of playing Sean personally,ŌĆØ said Brown head coach Jesse Agel. ŌĆ£I think the focus was 'This guy is good and weŌĆÖre going to go after him.'ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£I just knew that was the key to winning this game was to shut (McGonagill, averaging just under 14 ppg) down,ŌĆØ Council said. ŌĆ£HeŌĆÖs the key to their team and runs their offense.ŌĆØ
The renewal of the PC-Brown series was not even close. The Bears (4-6) opened the game in a 4-for-19 shooting funk on their way to trailing 34-19 after one half, which saw Council nearly outscore the opposing team by himself with 15 points.
The pace of the game clearly bothered Brown, which PC took full advantage of. With Council manning the controls and shredding the oppositionŌĆÖs man-to-man strategy, the Friars continuously beat the Bears down the floor for easy scoring chances. To Agel, PC registered more harm than the 12 fast-break points it received credit for.
ŌĆ£I thought Providence played us much better and much tougher,ŌĆØ said Agel when referencing his teamŌĆÖs 19-point loss to Iowa over the weekend. ŌĆ£We were struggling to make shots and they just came out and knocked us in the face to start the game.
ŌĆ£They got on the backboard and guys were sprinting down the floor because they know theyŌĆÖre going to receive it from (Council),ŌĆØ Agel went on. ŌĆ£HeŌĆÖs now looking to get his as much as heŌĆÖs looking to make the next pass up the floor.ŌĆØ
CouncilŌĆÖs recipients included freshman LaDontae Henton, who earlier in the day was named Big East Rookie of the Week. Henton finished with 19 points and nine rebounds. Sophomore Bryce Cotton scored 17 of his 19 points after halftime while Gerard Coleman, who received mention on the Big East honor roll, came through with 10 points and six rebounds.
Andrew McCarthy led the way for Brown with 12 points while Matt Sullivan chipped in with 10 off the bench.
Afterwards Cooley announced that freshman guard Kiwi Gardner has been declared ineligible for the season. For a PC team that is woefully thin from a pure numbers standpoint, the loss of the Oakland, Calif. native is most crippling.
ŌĆ£I feel bad for Kiwi. This is something that we canŌĆÖt control. ItŌĆÖs something that the NCAA deemed him ineligible. For whatever reason, I donŌĆÖt know,ŌĆØ said Cooley, speaking to the media in somber tones. ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre going to support him. The only thing he can do is come to Providence College as a non-qualifier. There are a lot of rules I need to read up on. I just know that heŌĆÖs not going to be able to practice or play.
ŌĆ£I really feel bad for him because heŌĆÖs definitely someone who could help this club,ŌĆØ Cooley added.
Gardner was seated on the bench Monday night, sporting a suit. Cooley was asked about Gardner potentially returning to Providence for the second semester. ŌĆ£We hope so because I think heŌĆÖs someone who can help this program moving forward.ŌĆØ
The topic of why the NCAA didnŌĆÖt investigate GardnerŌĆÖs high school transcript until after school had started at PC came up.
ŌĆ£There are a lot of coaches in the same boat that IŌĆÖm in, but they did get their player established earlier,ŌĆØ Cooley said. ŌĆ£I wished the NCAA had done us a favor and done that, but thatŌĆÖs something I canŌĆÖt control. WeŌĆÖve got to try and support that young man as much as we can.ŌĆØ

Plot Summary: "No Country for Old Men" is a mesmerizing new thriller from Academy Award� winning filmmakers Joel Coen & Ethan Coen, based on the acclaimed novel by Pulitzer Prize winning American master Cormac McCarthy. The time is our own, when rustlers have given way to drug-runners and small towns have become free-fire zones.
The story begins when Llewelyn Moss (Brolin) finds a pickup truck surrounded by a sentry of dead men. A load of heroin and two million dollars in cash are still in the back. When Moss takes the money, he sets off a chain reaction of catastrophic violence that not even the law - in the person of aging, disillusioned Sheriff Bell (Jones) - can contain. As Moss tries to evade his pursuers - in particular a mysterious mastermind who flips coins for human lives (Bardem) - the film simultaneously strips down the American crime drama and broadens its concerns to encompass themes as ancient as the Bible and as bloodily contemporary as this morning's headlines.

Chef Jeff Tunks's menu at this sophisticated Downtown spot brings the foods of three coasts—Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific—to Washington. His smoked lobster with fried spinach was one of the first arrivals of delicate Pacific Rim cuisine to a staid local culinary scene nearly 20 years ago. If you're homesick for New Orleans, try the gumbo (served only at lunch). And for a quintessentially Washington experience, stop by as early as 3 pm on weekdays to watch the well-heeled
lobbyist crowd roll in for a deal-making happy hour.

I'm not sure what it is about the service here and at their other properties but it's as if each time you visit, they are all on the first day, as nothing arrives on time, there's no checking, last time, my waitress was too busy playing with the breasts of the mermaid hostess to check on my order.

I celebrated my birthday last year at DC Coast. The food is quite great and the dessert is mouthwatering. If you dislike the food, please remember that "it's the atmosphere, stupid."
By Wendy
Aug 7, 2002
The food was very good, the atmosphere was also nice. We were especially struck, however, by the skilled service. We were seated next to an amazingly obnoxious man and his date. The man kept his cell phone on the table and regularly made calls. When his date went to the ladies room he had a telephone conversation, that we coudl hear very clearly, with lots of profanity about his "ex". While this was going on our waitress came to the table to give
us water. She glanced in the direction of the crude and classless man and then back at me.I looked up at her and shrugged. Three minutes later, she came back to our table and told us to get up and follow her. She moved us to a beautiful tabel over looking the downstairs dinning room, turing us over to another waitress.A manager came over a few minutes later to apologize. We felt very well taken care of--and we didn't have to say a word. Unfortunately there was nothing we could do for the man's date.

I have eaten here about 6 times. I've never had a real memorable meal...one time I came down with food poisoning. We went for a friend's birthday and our service was HORRIBLE. It took 20 minutes just to get water. She had zero personality and got all of our orders mixed up. The tops was when she opened a second bottle of wine (at about $150/bottle) and poured on top of what was left in our glasses from the first bottle! We asked her to stop
pouring and she completly ignored us. I did complain to the manager and he comped one bottle which I thought was very nice. And the last time I was there the valet brought my new Audi back from the garage with $2500 worth of damage (and told he had just "scratched" it). The valet company was a nightmare to deal with and the restaurant kept calling saying that they were horrified and they were going to send me an apology letter. That was over a month ago....and big surprise...no letter.

Yesterday I uploaded my colored version of a Peter Pan fanart by DeviantArt artist Lehanan. After sleeping on it I decided I realized - due to this being made in the middle of the night - to make a few changes. I've added a few coloring changes as I realized some of the coloring of the clothing wasn't right. I also added the coloring of the strings on the boots. For the fun I also made a gif of it to show the layers of the coloring. This is indeed my first real time coloring a drawing in Photoshop, but I am very proud of the result. All credit goes to the original owner of the graphic.
